Step 1: Create Your Character Sheet

Notes
Once the sheet is created, you'll need to 'edit' it to add a picture, but otherwise you can add what you need to the sheet by simply clicking in the right text fields. It'll look something like this when you are done:

Notes
Has visited the Black Spine Mountains.
Has hunted the goblins that killed their family.
Step 2: Set Your Beginning Skills
Set your beginning skills. Set ten skills to 6, ten to 5, and the rest a t 4. (Maximums will be that same value until we get into career skills in Step 6.)
Step 3: Determine Stamina, Luck, and Pluck
Roll 2d6+12 to determine your Stamina score, then roll 1d6+7 to determine your Luck score. Set Pluck at 20 minus your Luck score.
Step 4: Select a Community
Pick the community you come from -- Human, Elf, Dwarf, Halfling. (I'd be happiest with an all-human party since we're not using the specific non-human careers in Compendium 1 and elsewhere, but people are free to choose as they want here. Be aware there are no mechanical benefits.)
Step 5: Roll for a Career
Roll 1d6 five times -- that'll produce five different careers for you to pick from... so after rolling, choose one to proceed with. (I'm using the Black Edition of the game, which includes the Kingdom Book and an additional six careers based on the city of Grim Biskerstaf.)
Each career has listed equipment and two additional d6 tables to roll on. Feel free to roll on those tables, roll twice on each and choose the results you like, or just pick the most interesting entry from each table.
Note that I'll walk folks through this step if need be -- for those that don't have the book, for example.
Step 6: Set Your Career Skills
Each career comes with five skills -- spread 10 points among them, then look at the lowest of those five... that's your Career Skill level in the given career. When editing your sheet, remember to adjust your maximums, to 10 or 12 depending on what the career says. These are the only skills you can improve while in this career.
Step 7: Set Your Basic Equipment
Set your basic equipment -- 2d6 silver coins, backpack, 1d3 days rations, water skin, eating knife, clothes and boots.
